Description
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of automatic driving, in particular to an automatic operation method and system for an unmanned truck at a port empty box yard.
Background
Unmanned container trucks, called unmanned trucks for short, have been increasingly used in ports and other situations where automated horizontal transport of containers is required. In this scenario, the unmanned truck not only needs to complete unmanned driving, but also needs to automatically cooperate with a shore bridge (i.e., a shore crane) to perform loading and unloading operations on the container, or automatically cooperate with a yard bridge (i.e., a gantry crane) to perform loading and unloading operations on the container. In a container yard, the ratio of heavy to empty containers is about 1: 1. The heavy boxes must be stacked and taken by a gantry crane. The empty boxes can be piled and taken by using a gantry crane and can also be piled and taken by using a stacking machine. Because the price of the small stacking machine is far lower than that of a large-scale gantry crane, an empty box area is specially set up in a container yard in order to save the stacking cost. The empty boxes and the heavy boxes are stored separately, the empty boxes in the empty box area are stacked and taken by a small stacking machine, and the heavy boxes in the heavy box area are stacked and taken by a large gantry crane. Therefore, half of the using amount of the gantry crane can be saved, and the piling cost is saved.
At present, in the process of performing stacking Operation by using a stacking machine in an empty box area, firstly, an unmanned truck receives an Operation instruction issued by a Terminal Operation System (TOS), and a driver drives the unmanned truck to enter a waiting area near an Operation position. Then, the operator observes the unmanned aggregate card in the waiting area, binds the stacker operated by the operator with the unmanned aggregate card and the operation container, reports the bound unmanned aggregate card to the TOS, and whistles or makes a gesture to the driver to prompt the driver to drive the unmanned aggregate card to an operation position. Then, the driver drives the unmanned truck to the operation position, and after the unmanned truck is stopped stably, the driver whistles or makes a gesture to the operator to prompt the operator that the stacking operation can be started. Then, the operator takes or puts the box from the unmanned collecting card through the stacking machine, and after the box taking or putting is completed, a whistle or a gesture is made to a driver of the unmanned collecting card to prompt that the stacking machine completes the stacking operation of the unmanned collecting card. Finally, the driver drives the truck away from the work location. And after observing that the unmanned truck drives away from the operation position, the operator of the stacking machine continues to perform subsequent operation.
Therefore, when the unmanned collecting card is matched with the stacking machine to operate in the empty box area, a full-automatic operation mode cannot be adopted like the unmanned collecting card and a shore bridge or a yard bridge, manual participation is needed, namely, a driver is needed to operate the unmanned collecting card on site, and then the unmanned collecting card is matched with the stacking machine to perform stacking operation. This reduces the efficiency of the empty box area stacking operation. In addition, in the process of performing stacking operation by matching the unmanned aggregate card with the forklift, an operator needs to select a target unmanned aggregate card by naked eyes, and information interaction is performed by whistling or gesturing by a driver of the unmanned aggregate card or an operator of the forklift.

Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present application may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
It is to be noted that, unless otherwise specified, technical or scientific terms used herein shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs.
In view of the prior art, when the unmanned container truck in the empty container area is matched with the stacking machine to carry out container loading and unloading operation, the unmanned container truck and the stacking machine need manual participation, the unmanned container truck cannot realize full-automatic operation, and the efficiency of container stacking and taking operation in the empty container area is reduced. The inventor finds out through a great deal of research that the reason why the unmanned card can not completely realize the automatic loading and unloading operation in the empty box area is that: although the unmanned aggregate card can perform automatic information interaction under the scene of a shore bridge or a field bridge, the automatic information interaction cannot be realized between the forklift and the unmanned aggregate card which cooperate with the unmanned aggregate card to perform loading and unloading operations in the empty box area. Therefore, in order to realize automated operation even in an empty box area by an unmanned aggregate card, it is necessary to perform automated information interaction between the unmanned aggregate card and the forklift.
Specifically, it is installed in a forklift: the device comprises a human-computer interaction module, a positioning module and a wireless communication module. Through the positioning module, the stacking machine can send out position information of the stacking machine. Specifically, the positioning module may be a module based on a multi-mode fusion positioning technology such as Beidou, inertial navigation, and the like. And the human-computer interaction module can accurately acquire the real-time positions of the unmanned collecting card and the stacking machine by combining the accurate positioning and sensing of the unmanned collecting card. Through the man-machine interaction module, an operator of the forklift can lock the target unmanned collecting card under the condition that the unmanned collecting card is not searched by naked eyes. Through wireless communication module for the fork lift truck can go out corresponding information transmission. Thus, the stacking machine can realize automatic information receiving and transmitting like an unmanned card collecting machine. Furthermore, automatic information interaction can be realized between the unmanned container truck and the wharf operating system and between the forklift and the wharf operating system, so that automatic information interaction can also be realized between the unmanned container truck and the forklift through the wharf operating system.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an automated operation architecture of a port empty box yard in an embodiment of the present application, and referring to fig. 1, the architecture may include: a terminal operating system 101, a data gateway 102, a plurality of unmanned hub cards 103, and a plurality of fork lift trucks 104. Among them, the terminal operating system 101, the plurality of unmanned trucks 103 and the plurality of fork lifts 104 can communicate with each other through high-reliability low-latency port-specific wireless communication pipes. That is, the plurality of the unmanned concentration cards 103 and the plurality of the fork-lift trucks 104 are connected to the data gateway 102 in a unified manner, and the plurality of the unmanned concentration cards 103 and the plurality of the fork-lift trucks 104 do not communicate with each other directly, but perform data forwarding and scheduling management between the plurality of the unmanned concentration cards 103 and the plurality of the fork-lift trucks 104 through the data gateway 102 and the dock operating system 101. Of course, the terminal operating system 101 may communicate with the plurality of unmanned hub 103 and the plurality of fork lift trucks 104 via other types of networks, and the specific type of network used for communication is not limited herein.
In the forklift 104, at least: a human-computer interaction module 1041, a positioning module 1042 and a wireless communication module 1043. The positioning module 1042 enables the forklift 104 to send out its own position information. Through the human-computer interaction module 1041, the operator of the forklift 104 can lock the target unmanned aggregate card without looking for the unmanned aggregate card by naked eyes. Through the wireless communication module 1043, the forklift 104 is enabled to send out corresponding information. Thus, the stacking machine can realize automatic information receiving and transmitting like an unmanned card collecting machine. Furthermore, automatic information interaction can be realized between the unmanned container truck and the wharf operating system and between the forklift and the wharf operating system, so that automatic information interaction can also be realized between the unmanned container truck and the forklift through the wharf operating system.
Next, the automated operation method of the unmanned aggregate card in the port empty box yard according to the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail.

s201: and the wharf operating system sends a loading and unloading instruction to the forklift and sends a move-to-work shell bit instruction to the unmanned collection card.
After the wharf operating system obtains the operation tasks, especially for loading and unloading containers in the empty box area, since the unmanned truck and the forklift are required to cooperate through a plurality of steps to complete one operation task, the wharf operating system can decompose the operation task into a plurality of operation instructions based on the loading and unloading operation process in the empty box area.
At the beginning of container loading and unloading, the unmanned truck needs to be driven to the operation area for loading and unloading the container, and the forklift needs to be informed of the loading and unloading operation. Therefore, the wharf operating system sends a loading and unloading command to the forklift first, so that the forklift knows that container loading and unloading operations are required subsequently, and sends a command to go to the operation bay to the unmanned truck, so that the unmanned truck goes to the operation area.
In practical application, the wharf operating system may obtain a plurality of job tasks, and at this time, the wharf operating system may match different unmanned trucks and fork lifts for the plurality of job tasks, or may match the plurality of job tasks to the same unmanned truck and fork lift, and execute them in sequence.

After the unmanned truck travels to the pre-job waiting position, the current position and the waiting state of the unmanned truck are sent to the wharf operating system to inform the wharf operating system that the unmanned truck has traveled to the pre-job waiting position and is ready to execute a loading and unloading task.
S203: the dock operating system sends the current position and wait state of the unmanned hub to the fork lift.
After receiving the current position and the waiting state of the unmanned aggregate card sent by the wharf operating system, the wharf operating system can determine that the unmanned aggregate card is in the waiting position before the operation and is ready for the operation. At this point, the dock operating system may forward the current location and wait state of the unmanned aggregate card to the fork lift, having informed the fork lift that the unmanned aggregate card is in the pre-job wait position and ready for the job.
S204: the stacking machine binds the unmanned container truck and the container according to the operation information of an operator in the man-machine interaction module based on the current position and the waiting state of the unmanned container truck, and sends the bound unmanned container truck and the bound container truck to the wharf operation system through the wireless communication module.
After the stacking machine receives the current position and the waiting state of the unmanned truck sent by the wharf operating system, the stacking machine can determine whether the unmanned truck is in the waiting position before the operation and is ready for the operation. At this time, the man-machine interaction module in the forklift displays the information of the unmanned container card which is prepared for operation and the information of the container. The operator on the stacking machine can select the corresponding unmanned collecting card through the content displayed by the man-machine interaction module, so that the operator on the stacking machine does not need to look for the unmanned collecting card through naked eyes. And then bind the unmanned container truck of selection and corresponding container, can improve the accuracy that unmanned container truck bound. Then, the information of the bound unmanned container and the bound unmanned container can be sent to a wharf operating system through a wireless communication module of the forklift, and the wharf operating system can know that the forklift is bound to complete the unmanned container and the bound unmanned container.
S205: and the wharf operating system sends the information of the stacking machine and the container to the unmanned hub.

It should be noted here that when the task to be completed is a task of unloading a container, that is, a container on the unmanned aggregate card needs to be unloaded, when the forklift performs binding, only the unmanned aggregate card needs to be bound, and the container does not need to be bound. And sending the bound unmanned card collecting information to the wharf operating system by the stacking machine. And the wharf operating system does not need to send the bound container to the unmanned container truck, and only sends the information of the stacker bound with the container.
S206: and the unmanned collecting card runs to an operation berth according to the information of the stacking machine and the container, and sends the current position and the vehicle locking state of the unmanned collecting card to the wharf operating system after the unmanned collecting card is stopped stably.
After receiving the information of the stacking machine and the container sent by the wharf operating system, the unmanned hub can determine that the stacking machine is bound with the corresponding container, and then the unmanned hub continues to drive to the operating berth according to the information of the stacking machine and the container. After the operation bay is stopped stably, the current position and the locking state of the unmanned collecting card can be sent to the wharf operating system to inform the wharf operating system. The unmanned aggregate card can currently perform loading and unloading operations at once.
S207: and the wharf operating system sends the current position and the locking state of the unmanned truck to the forklift.
After receiving the current position and the locked state of the unmanned hub transmitted by the wharf operating system, the wharf operating system knows that the unmanned hub can currently perform loading and unloading operations. At this time, the dock operating system forwards the current position and the vehicle locking state of the unmanned truck to the corresponding stacking machine, so that the stacking machine knows that the unmanned truck is ready for loading and unloading, can perform loading and unloading operation at once at present, and further can start the loading and unloading operation.
S208: the forklift drives to the unmanned collecting card based on the current position and the vehicle locking state of the unmanned collecting card, loads and unloads the unmanned collecting card under the operation of an operator, drives away from a passing area of the unmanned collecting card after the loading and unloading are completed, and sends the current position and the state of completing an operation task to a wharf operation system through the positioning module and the wireless communication module.
After the stacking machine receives the current position and the vehicle locking state of the unmanned collecting card sent by the wharf operating system, the stacking machine can know that the unmanned collecting card reaches the operation bay, is ready for loading and unloading, and can immediately start loading and unloading operation. At the moment, the forklift reminds an operator through the man-machine interaction module, and the unmanned truck is in place. The loading and unloading operation can be started. The operator can now start operating the forklift, and load and unload the unmanned truck by operating the forklift. After the operator finishes the operation of loading and unloading the box of the unmanned truck, the operator can drive the fork-lift truck to drive away from the passing area of the unmanned truck so as to give way for the unmanned truck. After the stacking machine drives away from the passing area of the unmanned collecting card, the stacking machine can acquire the current position of the stacking machine through the positioning module of the stacking machine, and then the current position and the state of completing the operation task are sent to the wharf operating system through the wireless communication module of the stacking machine, so that the wharf operating system can know that the stacking machine completes the loading and unloading operation and drive away from the passing area of the unmanned collecting card.
S209: and the wharf operating system sends a driving-away operation area instruction to the unmanned truck according to the current position of the forklift and the state of completing the operation task.
After receiving the current position and the state of completing the operation task sent by the stacking machine, the wharf operating system can determine that the stacking machine completes the loading and unloading operation and drive away from the passing area of the unmanned truck. At the moment, the wharf operating system sends a driving-away operation area instruction to the unmanned truck, so that the unmanned truck can smoothly drive away from the operation area under the condition of no blockage of the stacking machine.
S210: and the unmanned collecting card drives away from the operation area according to the driving away operation area instruction.

After the wharf operating system sends a loading and unloading instruction to the forklift and sends an instruction to the unmanned aggregate card to go to the operating shell, a monitoring module in the wharf operating system can monitor that the wharf operating system sends the loading and unloading instruction and the instruction to the operating shell to the forklift and the unmanned aggregate card respectively, and then a storage module in the wharf operating system sends the loading and unloading instruction to the forklift with the wharf operating system monitored by the monitoring module and relevant information of the wharf operating system sending the instruction to the operating shell to the unmanned aggregate card is stored and recorded, so that the wharf operating system can be called and checked later when problems occur. The related information here may be the specific content of the instruction, the issuing object, the receiving object, the issuing time, the receiving time, and the like. The specific content of the related information is not limited herein.
It should be noted here that, in the subsequent steps, information interaction is also performed between the terminal operating system and the unmanned truck and the forklift, and the monitoring module and the storage module in the terminal operating system both monitor and store the information of the interaction.
S305: the unmanned collecting card runs to a waiting position before operation according to the instruction of the shell position of the operation, and sends the current position and the waiting state to the wharf operating system.
In the specific implementation process, the unmanned collecting card calculates the position of the working shell position of-17 meters, namely the waiting position before working, through a self computing system according to the instruction of going to the working shell position, and automatically drives to the waiting position before working. Currently, the pre-job waiting space may also be another space at a certain distance from the job space. The specific position of the waiting space before operation needs to be determined according to the actual situation of the port empty box yard, and is not limited specifically here.
In practical application, after the wharf operating system sends an instruction to the unmanned hub to go to the operating shell, after a period of time, if the wharf operating system does not receive the current position and the waiting state of the wharf operating system sent by the unmanned hub, it is described that a problem occurs in interaction between the wharf operating system and the unmanned hub, then alarm modules in the wharf operating system and the unmanned hub are triggered simultaneously to warn that a problem occurs in interaction between the wharf operating system and the unmanned hub, and a maintenance person is prompted to remove the problem.
Similarly, the same warning method can be used for sending other information between the wharf operating system and the unmanned truck, and the same warning method can be used for sending information between the wharf operating system and the forklift. And will not be described in detail herein.
In practical application, after receiving the operation-bound shell bit instruction, the unmanned aggregate card can first determine whether the operation-bound shell bit instruction is sent by the wharf operating system. That is, whether the instruction for the job waiting position includes the identifier agreed in advance between the wharf operating system and the unmanned aggregate card is checked. If yes, the instruction of going to the job shell bit is sent by the wharf operating system, and the unmanned card collector continues to go to the waiting bit before the job. If not, the operation-bound shell bit instruction is not sent by the wharf operating system, and there may be interference of a hacker, at this time, the unmanned truck stops at the current position, and continues to wait for the operation-bound shell bit instruction sent by the wharf operating system.
Similarly, the same judgment method can be used for sending other information between the wharf operating system and the unmanned truck, and the same judgment method can be used for sending information between the wharf operating system and the forklift. And will not be described in detail herein.
S306: the dock operating system sends the current position and wait state of the unmanned hub to the fork lift.

For the boxing process, an operator of the stacking machine needs to judge whether the stacking machine is already forked with an empty box and is in place, and if so, the operator of the stacking machine selects an empty box number and an unmanned container truck through the man-machine interaction module and binds the empty box number and the unmanned container truck. And then sending the binding information to the wharf operating system through the wireless communication module of the forklift. The binding information here refers to the box numbers of the bound unmanned aggregate card and the container.
For the box unloading process, an operator of the stacking machine needs to judge whether the stacking machine is unloaded and in place, and if so, the operator of the stacking machine selects an instruction strip of the unmanned truck needing operation currently through the man-machine interaction module. And then, sending the operation signal corresponding to the selected command bar to a wharf operating system through a wireless communication module of the forklift.
And for the situation that the forklift receives a plurality of loading and unloading instructions, the forklift can bind the unmanned container and the self-service container according to the operation information of the operator in the man-machine interaction module based on the current position and the waiting state of the unmanned container corresponding to the loading and unloading instruction with the longest waiting time. Therefore, the situation that the unmanned truck waits for a long time can be avoided, and the operation efficiency of the empty box storage yard is improved.
In the man-machine interaction module of the stacking machine, at least the position of the stacking machine, the positions and states of all unmanned trucks in the empty box area, a waiting position, a working position, a container position and a lane are displayed. Therefore, operators of the stacking machine can observe all conditions of the empty box yard through the human-computer interaction module in the stacking machine without directly observing the empty box yard, and the condition that the unmanned collecting card is wrongly bound due to observation errors caused by direct observation of the empty box yard is avoided.
After the stacking machine receives the current position and the waiting state of the unmanned collecting card sent by the wharf operating system, the position of the stacking machine and the positions and the states of all the unmanned collecting cards can be displayed in a human-computer interaction module of the stacking machine, and the recommended and bound unmanned collecting card and the recommended and bound container are highlighted according to the principles that the relative path is shortest and the time is most urgent. Therefore, the operator of the stacking machine can directly bind the current most suitable unmanned container truck and container, and further improve the operation efficiency of the empty container yard. And then the stacking machine can bind the recommended unmanned container and the container according to the confirmation information of the operator in the man-machine interaction module.
In practical applications, if the operator of the forklift does not select the unmanned trucks and containers highlighted in the human-computer interaction module, other unmanned trucks or containers are selected. At this time, the human-computer interaction module may also output a prompt page before the operator binds another unmanned truck or container, so as to prompt the operator whether to determine to bind another unmanned truck or container. If the operator selection is positive, then the unmanned aggregate card and container selected by the operator are bound to the current forklift. Therefore, the situation that an operator clicks a wrong unmanned container truck or container bound by the wrong card can be avoided, and the accuracy of operation of the empty container yard is improved.

And after the unmanned truck is stopped stably, the current position and the locking state of the unmanned truck are sent to a wharf operating system.
S310: and the wharf operating system sends the current position and the locking state of the unmanned truck to the forklift.
For the unpacking process, the dock operating system also needs to send an unpacking command to the stacker. Of course, the terminal operating system may not send the unloading command to the forklift at this time, but after receiving the current position and the locking state of the unmanned aggregate card sent by the terminal operating system, the forklift itself starts the unloading process as long as it is determined that the unmanned aggregate card has reached the working bay and is locked.
S311: the forklift drives to the unmanned collecting card based on the current position and the vehicle locking state of the unmanned collecting card, loads and unloads the unmanned collecting card under the operation of an operator, drives away from a passing area of the unmanned collecting card after the loading and unloading are completed, and sends the current position and the state of completing an operation task to a wharf operation system through the positioning module and the wireless communication module.
In a specific implementation process, after receiving the current position and the locking state of the unmanned aggregate card, the forklift can display the current position and the locking state of the unmanned aggregate card through the human-computer interaction module. Therefore, an operator of the forklift can know that the unmanned collecting card reaches the operation stall through the man-machine interaction module, and can prepare for operation. Further, the operator of the forklift can drive the forklift to approach the unmanned truck and carry out loading or unloading operations on the unmanned truck. Of course, the forklift can also drive to the unmanned truck based on the current position and the locking state of the unmanned truck, and carry out loading or unloading operation on the unmanned truck under the operation of an operator.
